i love all of these! esp. the eating oneself and the one about
reading your foot... cuz i dunno about anyone else but i definitely
tend look down at my feet (avoid eye contact) when i'm depressed (and
occassionally otherwise ;).. though i suppose i might use eating
oneself for being worried rather than jealous... i still love them...
great idioms!
...nicole, who adds idioms to her (really really long) list of things
that narethanaal needs...
